A 19-YEAR-OLD woman was left “screaming in pain” and unable to remember much of the night after she said her drink was spiked at a popular nightclub.

Libby Woolford, 19, from Porth, was out with her boyfriend and some friends at The Banc nightclub in Pentre, Rhondda Cynon Taf, when she went from “sober to in a complete state” within minutes.
On Friday, April 25, Libby was at The Banc and enjoyed a couple of drinks with friends. With a small amount of her third drink left Libby asked her partner's friend to watch her drink while she went to the toilet.
However she now knows that he didn’t hear her and she returned and finished the drink. Within 10 minutes Libby started to feel sick.
“I went to the toilet and for about 20 minutes I was being sick and it was green,” Libby said.
“I eventually went back out with friends and one of them was talking to me but I couldn't understand what she was saying because I was in such a state.”
